I had a motor cycle accident in my early twenties when I was travelling on the back of my boyfriend's bike.A car pulled out and didn't see us at all.We were both thrown from the motorbike about fifteen metres.Stupidly that day I had chosen to ware a short skirt.I immediately regretted that as I had severe tarmac abrasions all up my legs.My boyfriend was in full leather which saved his skin so his injuries were minimum.My boyfriend had reservations about me travelling on the back with my skirt and tights on.But every week he would give me a lift when I was wearing leather or jeans and nothing happened.So the one summer evening I took a chance and wore a skirt the worst happened. The women who caused the accident admitted she did not see us and told the police the same.This was vital evidence for our compensation claim and made the case run quickly and smoothly.I had never heard of compensation claims at the time and it was only my boyfriend at the time who was an American that told me we could claim back for the injuries and the cost of new leathers and crash helmets.Once a crash helmet has been in a crash it must be renewed. Within a week of the accident we went and saw a solicitor with all the details of the accident including the police report reference number and the details of the women who caused the accident.We used legal aid to fund the personal injury claim and within 4 months we received money for all of our expenses.These expenses included our money to replace our damaged leathers and clothes, money to replace our crash helmets, money to touch up the scratches and damage to the motorbike. We were also compensated for the pain and suffering we went through.All in all we were repaid for everything and more so it was well worth going through the legal system to claim for compensation. Nowadays there is no legal aid available for personal injury cased.This has been replaced a Conditional Fee Agreement which is better known as 'No Win No Fee'.With the 'No Win No Fee' agreement you can make a claim without having to make an upfront payment for the services of the lawyer.The legal costs are paid by the party responsible for the negligence or their insurance company.If in the event of the case being lost then there are some options available.Some lawyers have relationships with after the event insurers, which means that the legal company with provide an insurance policy.Most companies won't charge a premium for this although it worth checking as some companies might expect you to pay the premium. It is important to remember that with the 'no win no fee' agreements the lawyers are effectively working for nothing and just relying on their judgment that they will win the case, so in other words get paid for their work.They are not likely to take on a case they think they won't win. If you are wondering if you might be entitled to compensation ask yourself the following question.Have you have suffered an injury which wasn't your fault in the last three years?If you answered yes then you will be entitled to compensation and it is your civil right to do so. ]]>https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_wadvca.html#commentRss39Why Claim No Win No Fee Work Accident Compensation?https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_nk2lea.html
https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_nk2lea.html#respondFri, 31 May 2019 21:03:00 +0800 If that is the case then you may very well have the opportunity to claim work accident compensation from your employer. You don't have to worry about your employer being put out of business by your claim as all the money will come from their insurance company. You also don't have to worry about losing your job as a result of your claim as it is against the law for an employer to fire you as a result of you seeking accident compensation. There are plenty of accidents that can happen as a result of workplace mismanagement, whether it's a simple slip and damaged knee or a much more serious accident with heavy machinery or sharp objects. There are degrees of accident, degrees of injury and degrees of compensation to make sure everybody gets what they're entitled to. Any injury can have a massive effect on your life, so it's very important that you do claim as soon as possible. Time shouldn't worry you either. Many cases don't actually reach the courts as the outcome is obvious to both sides and a settlement can be reached which all parties consider fair. This means you get your compensation that much quicker. You needn't worry about being able to pay costly lawyer's fees either. There are a huge number of companies now that offer No Win No Fee and Win No Fee representation in accident claim cases. This means that if your case is unsuccessful you don't have to pay your lawyers a penny, and if your case is successful it's the other party who have to pay your lawyer's fees, meaning you keep every last bit of your compensation. This means that even if your injury has affected your ability to work and you are worried that your income won't support an accident claim you can still go ahead and seek compensation. Remember, whoever is responsible for your accident is responsible for your pain and suffering too, and they should be the ones to pay for any extra costs your injury necessitates. ]]>https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_nk2lea.html#commentRss29Everything You Need to Know About Filing Tort Cases in Canadahttps://www.todayquestions.com/articles_36oaba.html
https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_36oaba.html#respondFri, 31 May 2019 20:51:00 +0800Personal injury cases, especially torts, cannot be won without knowing the basic definitions. There are a lot of terms and conditions in the personal injury law and without due knowledge about them, one might have to bear a heavy loss. Hence, following is some useful info about tort cases.

What is a Tort Case?

A tort is basically a civil wrong-doing. When some person or organisation, intentionally or unintentionally, harms an individual or a group of individuals and makes the victim suffer some kind of loss, then it's said that a tort has been committed.

Cause and Effect

According to personal injury lawyers, injuries in such cases happen because of one's actions which ultimately bring harm upon another person. This might happen because the first person wasn't attentive enough or was negligent in some way. The victim can claim the damages caused to him/her by the injury and can thus file a suit to recover lost wages, medical bills, damage due to pain/suffering, fees of lawyers etc.

Types of Tort Cases

Although one can get involved in such a case due to endless reasons, however, following are some most common types of tort cases:

1. Slip and fall – If a person slips and falls due to negligence of an individual or an organisation, its case of slip and fall.

2. Hit and run – If a person gets hit by a vehicle and the doer runs after committing the crime, it's a case of hit and run.

3. Car accidents – If a person intentionally or unintentionally commits an accident with his/her car, it's a case of car accident.

4. Product liability – If a person suffers damage due to a product produced by a company, it's a case of product liability.

5. Medical malpractice suits – If a person is a victim of malpractices of a medical practitioner, it's a case of medical malpractice.

6. Catastrophic injury cases – If a person suffers damage due to catastrophic reasons, then the case is a catastrophic injury case.

Tort cases are tough to fight and without an experienced personal injury lawyer, one cannot really hope to get what he/she truly deserves for his suffering.]]>https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_36oaba.html#commentRss35The Top 5 Personal Injury FAQshttps://www.todayquestions.com/articles_fvi2ia.html

https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_b2idaa.html#respondFri, 31 May 2019 20:36:00 +0800According to the Orange County Register, the two children, Sofia and Connor were traveling with their father, John Sales in his Mercury Mountaineer when the car in front of them, a Toyota, began to slow down. Sales slowed down his SUV to avoid an accident. A Chevrolet Silverado just behind the Sales’ car however was traveling at what officers later described as an “unsafe speed”. It couldn’t stop in time to avoid an accident, and it crashed into the Mountaineer, which in turn, hit the Toyota ahead. The two children and their father were rushed to the hospital, where Sofia, who had suffered severe injuries in the car accident, died a few hours later. John Sales and his son Connor escaped with minor injuries. The driver of the speeding Silverado, Armstrong Kitchen suffered moderate injuries in the accident.

For the Sales family, two of whose members are still receiving treatment for their injuries, this has been a terrible tragedy. Our hearts go out to them, and we wish them the strength to bear the loss of their little girl.

From what the OC Register reports, it seems that the driver of the Silverado was over the speed limit, and this resulted in him not being able to stop the car in time to avoid the crash. Speeding is one of the most common causes of car accidents in the country. A driver going above the normal speed limit has very little time, a fraction of a second in many cases, to make a decision that could impact his safety and the safety of others on the road. In that small period of time, he must decide what decision he must make, and execute that decision. It’s common in such a situation to have a complete panic reaction, and take the wrong kind of decision, which can lead to a loss of control over the vehicle, causing an accident. Even if the decision is the right one, there is very little time for the decision to be executed, and the motorist may fail to stop, swerve or turn in time, causing a collision with another vehicle, pedestrian or bicyclist. In any case, the consequences are always the same – a serious accident with a huge impact, followed by injuries, and even deaths.

A speeding car also exerts a greater force in the event of an accident, than a car that is going at an acceptable speed and is involved in a crash. High speed car crashes usually involve devastating injuries, including spinal cord injuries, severed limbs, and massive head trauma leading to brain injuries.

A person injured in a car accident where the other motorist was clearly above the speed limit can hold that motorist liable for any damages that ensue. In cases like this, it’s important that you consult with an experienced California car accident lawyer to build a winning case.]]>https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_b2idaa.html#commentRss28Insurance Coverage Options for the Traumatically Brain Injuredhttps://www.todayquestions.com/articles_pgk2ca.html
https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_pgk2ca.html#respondFri, 31 May 2019 20:16:00 +0800In a perfect world, every patient would have unlimited access to the best resources available to meet their needs.Ours unfortunately is not a perfect world. The consequences of a traumatic brain injury are far reaching.Not only are there treatment costs associated with the recovery from the acute injuries, but there are the costs of long term care and supervision, the lost support to the family unit that the injured party previously contributed, the increased physical demands placed upon the caregivers and family of the survivor to meet the needs of their injured loved ones, and the family having to step into the breach of the role that the injured person previously contributed to the family. This analysis will focus on health insurance sources of funding for treatment and assistance to the traumatically brain injured. Secondary Payors stand behind the patient to pay all or a portion of the patient's medical expenses depending upon coverage and policy limitations. Healthcare providers are familiar with the process of confirming coverage in advance of medical procedures and I will not be addressing those issues here.Also, I will not address appeals from denial of coverage for medical procedures as those appeals are often dependent upon the precise language of the policy and the parties involved in the decision making process. A. Health Insurance Coverage The health insurance coverage which a patient has can make a dramatic difference in the care which is available to the patient who is unable or unwilling to pay for the services directly.The type of insurance the patient has becomes most noticeable once the patient has stabilized. 1. Lifetime Coverage Limits Most insurance companies have insurance policies that establish lifetime limits on coverage.Be aware that procedures which are covered may become uncovered once the lifetime limit has been reached.It is not uncommon for lifetime limits to be reached in treating catastrophic injuries. Families and treating medical professionals should be aware of the impact of their patient's lifetime limit coverage limits and request threshold notification from the insurance provider as the threshold of the coverage limitation is approached. 2. Subrogation Clauses Subrogation clauses appear in some insurance policies.A subrogation clause allows the insurer the right to take legal action against a third party responsible for a loss to an insured for which a claim has been paid. The clause takes its name from the section of the policy which gives the insurer the right to be subrogated to, or take as its own, the insureds claim and to sue the person or entity causing the injuries for the damages.An insurance carrier may only sue in the name of the insured if the insured had a deductible and therefore a personal stake in the outcome of the litigation.Few health insurance policies have true subrogation clauses. 3. Therapy Benefits Policies often have different caps and coverage's for therapy benefits. Coverage's for therapy benefits need to be explored and the therapy services properly coded in order to insure reimbursement for these much needed modalities. 4. Home Care Benefits If a patient has long term care insurance, that will often cover home care benefits.Long term care insurance benefits, while often purchased by the elderly, apply to all persons meeting the coverage definitions.Traumatically brain injured individuals often meet the coverage definitions of long term care insurance benefits. 5. Veterans Administration Benefits If your patient was in the military, and certain covered spouses, they may be entitled to Veterans Administration benefits.The Veterans Administration contracts with some nursing homes to provide for residents covered by the VA Program. 6. Durable Medical Equipment There is often separate coverage under most policies for the provision of durable medical equipment. Traumatic Brain Injuries are often referred to as the silent epidemic.A person's life can be substantially and dramatically affected by a brain injury. Those of you serving on the front lines want the best outcome for their patients and loved ones.By securing all available funding, our loved ones can focus on their recovery. ]]>https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_pgk2ca.html#commentRss27Types of Workman Compensation Benefitshttps://www.todayquestions.com/articles_tn02ia.html

All you need to do is hire a personal injury lawyer and prove that anguish of other person resulted in your loss.

Personal Injury lawyer is the person who could make your life comfortable by proving your allegations correct. Here are tips which should be kept in mind while selecting a personal lawyer:

Keep your eyes on internet and look for a personal injury lawyer. Check different websites and look for kind of services which they offer. Highlight lawyers who hold an experience when it comes to personal injury cases.

Anytime, you can visit states bar association office or you could visit the website to look down whether lawyers highlighted in your list are reliable and experienced or not.

Selecting an attorney is not a task which should be accomplished in haste but it would be better on your part if you could consult your friends and relative and jot down some references. Personal advice is one which should be considered first.

Do check whether the personal injury lawyer you are going to hire has any kind of professional or personal relationship with the accused.

Do keep updated sources and references along with you which could be used for your personal use when in doubt.

Personal Injury lawyers are always there to help and support you when hired. Do keep faith in them and patience while fighting for justice. ]]>https://www.todayquestions.com/articles_0qnyaa.html#commentRss23
